You are correct, everything turns on the meaning of Public use.

The states define govt powers of eminent domain by statute, how far the local govt can go on eminent domain.

Kelo already stated that the Supreme Ct did not want to weigh in where the local govts are acting.

It is a state’s rights issue and many states have spoken since Kelo. Don’t like your states definition of Public use? Get it changed locally.
